Anthro knock off keychain

Nov 10, 2013

Would you believe that I don’t have a keychain? I mean, my keys are on a ring but I don’t have anything cute or decorative holding my keys. Well, I just changed all that! I found this adorable keychain at Anthropologie, and decided to make my own.

Supplies:

Step one: Cut or punch a one inch circle from paper. Stamp, draw or stick a monogram on it.

Step two: Apply Dimensional Magic (DM) to the center of the monogram, and press the charm on top. Let it dry.

Step three: Flip the charm over and apply DM to the back.

Step four: When it is dry, cut a strip of foil tape to fit around the charm. Press the edges of the foil firmly down. This gives you the look of soldering without all the work!

Step five: Take enough links of chain to fit the length of the keychain. Open the links to attach the chain to the keychain.

Step six: Use jump rings to attach the charms to the chain.

Finally, attach the monogrammed pendant to the jump ring at the base of the keychain.

Now you have a pretty, custom, monogrammed keychain that you can make in any color or style you like! These would make great gifts, too. Have fun creating!
